Formby (Beach) (Merseyside) weather

Headline:

Turning very warm or hot over the next few days.

This Evening and Tonight:

A warm evening with plenty of sunshine, albeit increasingly hazy. Turning cloudier overnight with patchy rain possible across Cumbria at times. Skies remaining clearer across Cheshire and Merseyside. A milder night than of late and turning rather humid by dawn. Minimum temperature 12 °C.

Monday:

Mainly dry with hazy sunny periods, once early drizzle has cleared Cumbria. Very isolated afternoon heavy showers possible. Humid, especially in the north and feeling very warm in southern counties. Maximum temperature 27 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Hot sunshine on Tuesday and remaining very warm for many on Wednesday and Thursday with some sunshine at times. Perhaps turning somewhat fresher later, with an increasing chance of thunderstorms.

High pressure will likely build leading to a period of fairly dry and settled weather for many at first, with a few light showers in the north. There may however be some heavy, thundery showers over the weekend, especially in the south. Temperatures will likely remain above normal, and much of the south could still see warm or very warm temperatures for at least a couple of days. There is a possibility that the heat could last further into the week, especially in the south. Beyond this high pressure will likely continue leading to plenty of fine weather, perhaps with the odd heavy shower or thunderstorm. Temperatures will likely continue to be above normal but there are some signs of fresher conditions developing in the north later.

High pressure, and therefore largely settled conditions overall, appears more likely at first. Although dry weather is likely to dominate, periods of rain or showers and thunderstorms may develop at times. Above average temperatures overall seem most likely but there may be some fresher interludes in the north at first. There remains potential for further hot spells to develop, especially in the east and south. By the turn of the month, there are signals for high pressure to become less dominant with perhaps a greater chance of some rain, though there is some uncertainty in this aspect of the forecast.
